We are aiming to deliver as much support as possible to those suffering as a result of the ongoing conflicts in Iraq and Yemen. This year many have been severely impacted by the COVID virus, so your charity will go a long way in making a difference to those living in a country where every day is a struggle for survival. As Muslims it is our moral responsibility to help the less fortunate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Noor Orphans Fund, our charity is continually seeking to provide better living conditions and educational opportunities to orphans and widows and provide a brighter future for their families. We need your help for our ongoing campaigns to be able to provide financial and practical support.&nbsp;Your donations will support the neediest orphans and widows. Noor Orphans Fund will be distributing food packs throughout&nbsp;the holy month of Ramadan as part of our Ramadan Aid campaign.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With your help, we will provide iftar hampers for a family in need. Each hamper which will consist of essential food items and we are currently planning to raise enough funds to support 2,000 families. From as little as \u00a315, you can feed a family in need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make the most of this blessed month and support those in need by donating to those who are suffering from poverty, war, and the unfortunate consequences of the pandemic.&nbsp;Your donations will ensure those in need can enjoy a nutritious meal after a long day of fasting.&nbsp;With your continuous support, we will ensure food packs are distributed to some of poorest people in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you give in Ramadan not only are your blessings multiplied, but your charity will significantly change the lives of those less fortunate and make the world a better place for us all. Every donation makes a difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">To make a donation click on the link below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nrf.org.uk\/ramadan\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"www.noororphansfund.org\/ramadan\">www.noororphansfund.org\/ramadan <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">To keep up with our latest updates you can follow us on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram @noororphansfund <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nrf.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MicrosoftTeams-image-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14613\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nrf.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MicrosoftTeams-image-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.nrf.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MicrosoftTeams-image-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nrf.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MicrosoftTeams-image-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.nrf.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MicrosoftTeams-image-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.nrf.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MicrosoftTeams-image-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.nrf.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MicrosoftTeams-image-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.nrf.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MicrosoftTeams-image.jpg 1635w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cSpend (in the Cause of Allah) from the provisions that We have given you before death should come to any of you and then he should say, &#8220;O my Lord, why did You not reprieve me awhile that I should have given in charity and become of the righteous.&#8221; But Allah does not at all [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":570,"featured_media":14613,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[790,71,72],"tags":[797,791,802,801,800,789,796,803,59,799],"class_list":["post-14612","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-covid","category-news","category-nof-updates","tag-children","tag-covid","tag-iftar","tag-iraq","tag-mother","tag-news","tag-nof","tag-poor","tag-ramadan","tag-widows"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.0 -
